Radiator Replacement - Help Needed

[horrace]

Fair enough that is cheap! Pm me who did it for you if you want, sounds like an auto r33/34 rad to me.

[bubba]

With a core that's twice as thick as standard

[horrace]

yeah thats the part i like, also the fact it has the radiator tranny cooler/warmer

[bubba]

I saw it, for $400 fitted with a flush and a warranty, can't go wrong

Installed my R33 S2 auto radiator into my mums stagea series 1 with no issues and got myself a shiny allow one since I dont need the auto radiator anymore.

So from experience the R33 radiator works fine in the series 1 stagea.

Yeah I wanna keep the cooler though, I have been on the look out for a standard 33/34 auto rad. I think the core is 25mm thick and I could retain the cooler/warmer. I had no luck getting second hand ones so I was gonna get one off eBay but for the price chuckie got his seems like the better option.

[horrace]

I just picked up a factory replacement koyo radiator for 350 will put it in this weekend and see how things go, it's allso automatic, couldnt be bothered going bigger then adding warmer/cooler and the fact that the factory koyo is half the price of the full aluminum rads.

The radiator in Andreis car is a KOYORAD radiator from Japan, drops straight in, has the auto heat exchanger and most importantly, is 25mm instead of 16mm.

WHERE DID HE GET IT?

Hi guys, my apologies, they blocked access from work and I was fairly busy recently (and bloody card reader stopped working !!)

Any way, as guys said, I got it from John for around $400 fitted with warranty. Cooling system flushed, new coolant, all checked. It almost twice as thick as the old one .. but look at the pics, they speak for themselves.

I'm happy. IF I KNEW how thin was the old one, I'd change it long time ago - every now and then I go up north and I've seen +48.5 outside, going 100+ (well.. ++ :-)), loaded car, aircon on... I'll feel much better from now one..

Probably we could the radiator slightly cheaper, but I'd agree - for extra $50 someone does all the work + coolant + flush + testing + warranty + running around. $50 well spent.
